On May 14, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Market Oversight Division and the Clearing and Risk Division issued a "No-Action Letter" providing regulatory relief regarding data reporting and record-keeping requirements for event contracts. According to the statement, CFTC staff will not recommend enforcement action against designated contract markets (DCM), derivatives clearing organizations (DCO), and their participants, even if they fail to comply with certain record-keeping requirements related to swap transactions or do not report full collateral event contract transaction data to swap data repositories. The CFTC stated that this decision responds to requests from several exchanges and clearinghouses that list and clear event contracts. The regulatory body anticipates receiving similar applications in the future, including new requests due to changes in DCM licensing or adjustments in DCOs. Additionally, the CFTC mentioned that institutions looking to launch or clear similar event contracts in the future may apply for the same "No-Action" relief. The regulatory agency believes this move will streamline the approval process and ensure consistent treatment for market participants.

On May 14, a survey conducted by POLITICO and polling firm Public First, involving 2,035 American adults, revealed that only 4% of respondents stated they would consider a political candidate's stance on cryptocurrency policies when voting. The survey indicated that the most pressing issues for American voters currently include affordable housing, consumer fraud protection, and reducing bank fees. Only 18% of respondents believe that establishing regulatory rules for the cryptocurrency market should be a priority for Congress, just 1 percentage point higher than the priority of 'regulating large banks.' Additionally, only 27% of respondents support the U.S. government promoting cryptocurrency as a mainstream financial asset, while 31% oppose it. Furthermore, 45% of respondents believe that even though cryptocurrency investments may yield high returns, the risks are 'not worth taking'; only 25% think they are worth it. The survey also revealed that over half of the respondents indicated they have never traded cryptocurrency and will not do so in the future, with only 19% having traded crypto assets. Among those who have traded cryptocurrency, only 7% stated that a candidate's stance on cryptocurrency would influence their voting choice. However, the report noted that the lobbying power of the cryptocurrency industry continues to expand. Data shows that the cryptocurrency industry has invested over $130 million in political funding for the 2024 U.S. elections and has already contributed approximately $320 million for this year's midterm elections.

On May 14, despite an expanded loss in the first quarter, Solana Treasury's DeFi Development Corp. (DFDV) reported a 108% year-over-year increase in the value of each SOL share. According to its latest announcement, as of May 13, the company's SOL share price rose from $0.0322 a year ago to $0.0670. As of Wednesday, the company holds 2,294,576 SOL and equivalent SOL assets. DeFi Development attributes the increase in SOL share price to several 'unconventional' strategies that differ from those of other digital asset treasury companies, particularly Strategy. These strategies include internal staking through a validator business acquired by May 2025, collaboration with Bonk to establish joint validator nodes, and deploying over 25% of treasury assets on-chain.

According to the findings of a study undertaken by Mina Sami and Wael Abdallah, each time the cryptocurrency market cap grows by 10%, there is a corresponding 0.76% drop in the market value of African micro-entities.
The study findings also suggested that firms in less competitive sectors are “more likely to get hurt by the cryptocurrency market’s expansion.” For instance, the two authors conclude in their report that the cryptocurrency market has “a considerable effect on Africa’s energy, financial, industrial, and consumer services sectors.”
In contrast, the real estate and the information technology sectors are less affected by the growth of the crypto market, the authors said. Meanwhile, the authors claimed that their study has highlighted the importance of having “internal strategies and firm experience.” These attributes are vital for African firms that must now compete with cryptocurrencies.
Although the authors — who are also assistant professors at AUC — have acknowledged the steps taken by countries to counter the growth of the cryptocurrency market, they argue, however, that such steps have in fact “failed to protect their domestic firms.” According to the authors, this failure calls for interventions by governments that “improve the financial market’s competitiveness in Africa.”
